New Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order details; rest points, secret explore-able areas, enemy encounters & more

Jedi Fallen Order is the next big EA game coming at the end of this year on November. So far the game looks good, nothing really impressing but it looks interesting nonetheless.

Respawn Entertainment, the developers behind the game, released a lengthy gameplay video showcasing aspects of the game. Recently they released another lengthier video which shows a bit more.

There are several details which are not showed in the gameplay videos; such as the rest points which honestly was the strangest detail of them all. Think rest points as bonfires from Dark Souls and these rest points work exactly the same, well almost. You can rest, manage your abilities, refresh your healing resources, and the enemies respawn. I do not know how will this work since there are no attributes/stats in the game that you can level up, as far as I know. This mechanic works with Dark Souls because you level up to your heart’s content.

Fallen Order on the other hand has skill points that you can spent to unlock new powers. Honestly, this feels out of place but we will have to wait and see if it actually works well in this game.

Here is a list with more details that caught my eye:

  • The droid BD-1 can project a 3D map Metroid Prime style
  • BD-1 can heal you but the number of heals is limited
  • You can revisit previous areas and unlock new areas with new powers
  • You can avoid specific enemy encounters
  • There is looting in the game and you can loot different things like lightsaber crystals, hilts, clothes, etc
  • There are several things you can customize like your appearance, lightsaber, BD-1 and your space ship
  • No multiplayer or micro-transactions (or so they say)
  • You cannot go Dark side (honestly the impaling finisher is definitely not a Light side thing)
  • There are secret explore-able areas

Let’s hope most of these features will make it to the the final game.

Thanks PC Gamer

  1. “honestly the impaling finisher is definitely not a Light side thing”

    Well, considering he’s a Padawan, escaping Order 66 and Inquisitors that mostly wiped out most Jedi around, it’s not out of the realm of possibilities for him to diverse and adapt his powers. I don’t expect the game narrative to include those kind of details/justifications, it’s probably just a thing they added to make the game play cool, but I think in our minds we can tolerate that kind of possibility.

    1. Don’t get me wrong, I love finishers, but you got to admit it looks like something a Sith would do, which I really don’t mind.

    2. I’m really not sure why ppl get that idea… Sure it looks brutal but it’s only fighting style which has no real correlation to dark side. Doesn’t anyone remember how Yoda decapitated two clone troopers in one swift motion?

      1. I personally don’t have a problem with it. As someone who played all the 8 stories of SWTOR characters and, like everyone else, thought the light side / Jedi moves were quite lame (aka boring “pebble throwing” VS cool “lightning” on dark side Inquisitors), I’m ok with something less “tamed”.
        But it’s undeniable that traditional light side fighting on Star Wars lore tend to avoid certain moves, and consider them not very “light”.

  2. “There is looting in the game and you can loot different thing like lightsaber crystals, hilts, clothes, etc”

    imagine if you could loot guns and gadgets like the jedi knight series.

    “There are secret explore-able areas”

    Nice

  3. You could give me a laundry list of “amazing” things you can do in this game. Sorry man, but it’s EA.

    I honestly don’t understand how people are so thick, as to not realize that this game will be sandbagged with bulls**t from some angle. It’s EA. Show me one game they haven’t buttf–ked since ME3. I don’t know why people let their guard down, against a company that has years of bulls–ttery in their games.

    Take some free advice. Don’t get your hopes up. It’s sad that I even have to give this advice, but I’ll give it anyways. To anyone that buys this crap anyways, and feels burned after? You got what you deserved, and f-you for continuing to fuel this garbage company’s existence

        1. I cannot post images with captions, so I had to reply. Please, at least you keep having a normal functional brain.

    1. if i ever told you they would make a terminator game with 3 lesbians you would have laughed to me. On top of that all female ghostbusters oceans 11 remake, and doom with a female lead no doom guy not to mention the last transformers movie who couldnt stfu about being a girl.

      1. wtf are you talking about doom with a female lead? Terminator with lesbians? Laughed to you?

        Stfu and go back to Myanmar.

        1. What universe do you live in? Myammar i guess by your reaction, those are all movies that have come out lately, i guess you live in a different planet not to know those things.

          idiot.

  4. No multiplayer or micro-transactions. But on the other hand we will have SURPRISE MECHANICS. Just like the good ole harmless kinder eggs. ?

      1. Which is owned by EA. EA is paying for the game.

        While I admit the game has a chance because of respawn. It’s still under the EA banner.

        1. This is true but surely there won’t be any loot box crap with it being a story driven single player game…or will there?
